I was involved in a malpractice case a couple of years ago as a consultant. The case involved an emergency physician who was being sued for failure to make a rapid diagnosis of an ST-segment elevation ...

Artificial intelligence (AI)-based ECG interpretation outperformed standard pathways for the detection of occlusive myocardial infarction (MI), according to a study presented today at ESC Acute ...

Accurate diagnosis of an occlusive myocardial infarction (MI) can be challenging in patients who do not have a characteristic ECG sign called an ST elevation. This study assessed whether an artificial ...

Discover how machine learning models are revolutionizing the diagnosis of occlusion myocardial infarction (OMI) in patients with acute chest pain. Machine learning models surpass clinicians and ...

These 12-lead ECG recordings of eight patients show precordial ST-segment depression at the J point followed by peaked, positive T waves. In addition, lead aVR shows slight ST-segment elevation in ...

How often do you see an ECG that is just a little off? Maybe the T wave is flat, oddly-shaped or inverted. Maybe the ST segment is coved, very minimally-depressed or shows some J point elevation.

Upstream activation of the catheterization laboratory by emergency medical services (EMS) technicians and emergency department physicians for patients suspected of suffering an ST-segment elevation ...

Sooner was not better when using ECG to determine candidates for urgent coronary angiography after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), according to the PEACE study from Europe. The earlier the ECG ...

Learning the art of ECG interpretation requires intellect, commitment, effort and — perhaps most importantly — an organized approach. I have spent thousands of hours (yes, thousands) looking at ...
